I invest (and very selectively incubate) in the frontier technologies that strengthen the industrial and geopolitical backbone of the West—autonomy, robotics, defense systems, space technologies, energy, and next-generation compute.
At Bessemer, I’ve helped build our Resilience and frontier technology practice, leading investments and incubations across autonomous systems, dual-use robotics, defense platforms, energy, space, and the emerging industrial stack required for AI-driven growth.
This includes:
- A $130M Series B investment into Auterion, a leading defense autonomy company.
- A $XXM incubation I helped found: an advanced AI cybersecurity research lab focused on achieving full autonomy in cybersecurity.
- Additional work across nuclear fusion (unannounced), autonomous quadruped robotics (ANYbotics), and next-generation space vehicles (The Exploration Company).
Previously, I helped launch Bessemer’s London office and now am based in NYC, investing across the US and Europe with a focus on technologies that matter on 20- to 30-year horizons.
I believe we are entering a new epoch — a multi-trillion-dollar industrial and defense supercycle driven by AI compute, resilient supply chains, energy expansion, and autonomous systems. My work is dedicated to finding and backing the founders building that future.
This is the lens I operate from: investing at the scale of epochs, not cycles.
